Willy Adames, Giants hand Dodgers 7th straight setback
July 12 - Willy Adames drove in three runs with a triple and a home run, Dominic Smith added a solo homer and the host San Francisco Giants continued the Los Angeles Dodgers' misery with an 8-7 victory in the opener of a three-game series Friday night. Jung Hoo Lee also had three RBIs and Matt Chapman scored twice for the Giants, who have won seven of nine while trimming the Dodgers' lead in the National League West from nine games to four. Shohei Ohtani launched a home run into the San Francisco Bay, his 32nd of the season, and Michael Conforto also homered for the Dodgers, who lost their seventh straight. After the teams traded one-run leads in the early going on the strength of homers by Ohtani and Adames, his 12th, the Giants appeared to break the game open with a five-run fifth. Smith triggered the uprising with a leadoff homer, his second, before Adames had the big hit, a two-out, two-run triple. Dodgers starter Dustin May (5-6) was pulled immediately prior to Adames' hit, charged with seven runs on five hits and four walks in 4 2/3 innings. He struck out four. Staked to an 8-2 lead, Giants All-Star Logan Webb (9-6) couldn't get out of the sixth inning, during which the Dodgers clawed back into the game with four runs. Teoscar Hernandez had a two-run double before Conforto belted his eighth homer, a two-run shot, ending Webb's night. The right-hander allowed six runs and six hits in 5 1/3 innings, with one walk and six strikeouts. The Dodgers got within 8-7 in the seventh on an RBI single by Will Smith, but Tyler Rogers threw a scoreless eighth before closer Camilo Doval pitched out of a two-on, one-out jam in the ninth by getting Will Smith to ground into a game-ending double play for his 15th save. Lee finished with three hits, while Patrick Bailey joined Adames with two in the Giants' highest scoring home game since a 9-5 win over the Boston Red Sox on June 22. Hyeseong Kim collected a double and two singles, Mookie Betts had two hits and scored twice, and Will Smith also had two hits for the Dodgers, whose seven-game losing streak is their longest since an 11-gamer in September of 2017. --Field Level Media

Mike Tyson goads Jake Paul over $1MILLION bet after Katie Taylor beats Amanda Serrano in epic trilogy fight
MIKE TYSON warned Jake Paul he is coming for his $1MILLION winnings... and their dinner date. Last November, Tyson controversially came out of retirement aged 58 to face YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul. 3 He lost on points over eight shorter two minute rounds as 100 MILLION tuned in to watch on Netflix. On the undercard, over 50m watched Katie Taylor's rematch win over Amanda Serrano which came two years after her initial victory. Paul - who promotes Serrano - put $1m (£750,000) up in a wager against Tyson - who was backing Taylor. But Iron Mike insisted he must also be taken out for dinner by multimillionaire Paul if he won. And his bet paid off after Taylor closed out her trilogy series with a hat-trick of wins over her great rival Serrano. Tyson, now 59, immediately posted online: "Congrats to @KatieTaylor and @Serranosisters on the trilogy fight on Netflix. "@jakepaul see you at dinner to collect my million!" Taylor took a majority-decision and said: "I just want to thank Amanda Serrano as well, what an amazing fighter, we've made history here. 'I thought I boxed very smart, very well. She wasn't catching me with much. 'It was obviously very, very close. Just thank God my hand was raised. I planned to come in here and be disciplined and smart. 'I executed the game plan very well. Total respect for Amanda, what a warrior. I love you all, I love my country. Thank you so much.' Serrano, 36, said: 'We tried something different, it was all about working smarter, not harder. 'I tried to keep my distance because apparently it didn't worth the first two fights. So we tried to stick with the long punches and it just wasn't enough. 'I don't know, I have to go back and watch it. My team told me they think I won, I'm going to believe what they tell me. 'I was really trying to apply what they were telling me. I really want to support every single one of you for coming out and supporting me and women's boxing. 'What an amazing night for all of us women. I'm crying at the support, thanks to all of you. 'Thank you Jake Paul, you've changed my life. Thank you Netflix for showcasing us warriors. 'Thank you Katie Taylor for an incredible 30 rounds, it's been a true honour.' 3

Angels, Travis d'Arnaud walk off Diamondbacks
July 12 - Pinch-hitter Travis d'Arnaud singled in Logan O'Hoppe from second with one out in the bottom of the ninth to give the Los Angeles Angels a 6-5 walk-off victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks in the opener of a three-game series on Friday night in Anaheim, Calif. d'Arnaud lined a 2-2 sweeper from reliever Kyle Backhus (0-1) down the left field line to drive in O'Hoppe, who had been hit by a pitch and advanced to second on a single by Luis Rengifo. It was the sixth walk-off hit of d'Arnaud's career. Zach Neto homered and had two hits, Rengifo doubled and had three hits and an RBI, and Nolan Schanuel also had three hits. Yoan Moncada added a two-run homer for the Angels. Kenley Jansen (3-2) picked up the win with a scoreless inning of relief. Randal Grichuk went 3-for-4 with two home runs, a double and three RBIs for Arizona, which lost for the seventh time in 10 games. It was the 13th multi-homer game of Grichuk's career. Arizona starter Ryne Nelson, who threw 5 1/3 perfect things to begin his last start against Kansas City, was touched for four runs on five hits in the first inning. Neto led off with his 15th home run, a 447-foot drive to left-center and his seventh leadoff homer of the season. Schanuel followed with a walk and advanced to third on a double by Mike Trout. Taylor Ward then drove in Schanuel with a sacrifice fly to make it 2-0, and one out later Moncada hit his homer to right. Arizona bounced right back in the second to tie it 4-4 on a two-run home run by Grichuk -- a 430-foot drive to left -- and an RBI double by Alek Thomas, who then scored on a single by Jose Herrera. The Angels regained the lead 5-4 in the fifth when O'Hoppe walked, stole second and scored a double by Rengifo. The Diamondbacks tied it at 5-5 in the eighth on Grichuk's second homer and seventh of the season, a 411-foot blast to center. --Field Level Media
